You want to know why we will remain the World's Police for the foreseeable future?
We import all of our cheap electronics from China, along with plastic products and cheap textile products. This can also be said of Vietnam and India. Cellphones, ipads, computers.
We import cheap car parts and numerous agricultural products from Mexico. Some places put the number at 1/3 of our fresh produce.
We import numerous minerals and crude oil from Canada.
We import many of our pharmaceuticals from Europe, specifically Ireland and Switzerland.
We import oil from the middle east in vast quantities.
Cars from Japan and Korea.
Precious minerals from Africa.
Coffee from South America.
Somewhere in the neighborhood of 20% of every dollar spent in the US is spent on things imported. And that is significantly tilted towards cheap product that is the basis of low income life.
So yeah. Until we unbundle our economy and our very fabric of life from the rest of the world and be completely economically independent, we will always be involved in the world's affairs.
We will never, willingly, allow the world to devolve into a conflict like WW2. So we play police.
It is why libertarian isolationist people like Rand Paul and their foreign policy views are retarded.
You have to isolate yourself from the world economy first.
And the first President to really make any moves in that direction in a real way is Trump.
If you really want to get to a point where we aren't the World Police, the first thing you need to cheer for is Drill Baby Drill.

No one with a brain is surprised.
That’s why the PMAC was empty.
Only retards were defending it.
I seriously think there were more people at the last volleyball game I went to.

It helps that there is a an entire world built in Disneyworld to replicate this world. And its pretty immersive with a really good ride involved.
The only thing I am surprised about is that Cameron was able to drag it out so long before making 2 and 3.
Seems like he just made in before the timer went off.

Stossel debunks memes
Stossel did a good video on this debunking all this bullshite.
Houses were way smaller and not close to as nice as now, cars weren't as reliable or efficient. People didn't eat out at all. And practically no one put their kids thru college in any way.
Young people are just entitled now. I had to live in a mobile home for the first three years of my marriage because we got married young, wanted no one telling us what to do and were intent on not relying on anyone but ourselves. Our families weren't jacked we got married so young.
Then when we got our first house (not in 1950 or 70, but in 2001) it was a whopping 1190 sf. I raised two kids there. And yes I have significantly upgraded.
But when I tell the young people at work I started in a trailer, they gasp.
Yeah. A trailer, with no internet, no TV, no home phone even and one car between the two of us that we didn't even own, we leased because that's all we could do at the time.
They think I am joking.
There is plenty of opportunity for people who want it.
It's sad, but the only people who want it like that aren't even from the US.
I'll add one thing.... if young people want to be mad at the world that they were born into, then they really ought to be behind RKFJR. Because that is the one place I think they have a legitimate gripe. The processed food of the supermarket today is not good for you anymore and the pharma/med community has turned on the very people they are supposed to protect.

If you countered with twice or more of your current or most recent salary working from home three days a week and he said I can make that work, you saying you’d say no?
See this is part of the “be an adult and figure out what you want” part. No one truly says no all the time. You have a price. You need to learn it. What if it’s a quarter mil a year?

re: Killing people who are not attacking you or your countrymen is MURDER and anti-Christ

I keep looking for the part of this thread where the Catholic or Pentecostal or Baptist pastors and choir leaders are murdering people in the streets or dropping bombs on boats.
Can't seem to find it.
Still alot of people murdering unborn babies though.

No offense, but part of the problem is that you don't know what you really want and it is causing issues with your negotiation.
You are treating it like dating. This isn't some guy you can just string along while you decide what you want out of life. Sit down and be an adult.
What number would tip the scale to work for this a-hole? How many days do you need a week work from home that is not negotiable? Then pick numbers 10-15% more than this and make a counter offer.
You will know in 20 seconds how serious it is.

what guard rotations for Texas are you talking about?
Texas only plays 7 players. Five are Forwards, including Booker. They played two guards the whole game. No 8-13 players had any minutes in their big games this year.
Lee and Harmon played the full 40 as did Booker, against USC. And they almost did the same in the UCLA game. They apparently have no discernable depth. And they two they bring off the bench play like 10 min or so.
and their height advantage???
TX starting FIVE
Harmon 5'6
Lee 6'0
Booker 6'1
Carlton 6'1
Oldacre 6'6
Playing time bench
Cunningham 6'4
Sidberry 6'1
LSU starting five
Richard 5'7
Johnson 5'10
Williams 6'0
Johnson 6'0
Koval 6'5
Playing time bench
Knox 6'2
Joyner 6'2
Fulwiley 5'10
Hines 5'10
Bourrage 5'11
Yarnovich 6'0
Gilbert 5'6
I don't think we stack up height wise as badly as people think. We are bigger than people realize. They have a slight height advantage. But we have a TON more depth than Texas.
